Becks buys dinner for Spurs, Galaxy players probably go hungry

David Beckham's training spell with Spurs has come to an end, but before he begrudgingly returns to the L.A. Galaxy for one last season in his American prison, he gave his Premier League training partners one final gift (aside from the experience of practicing with him).  

From the Independent:

The midfielder left Spurs after training on Monday, but not before ordering in pie and mash, a traditional working-class London meal. Redknapp teased reporters at the club's training ground when he said: "You don't know what it is.

"It's only us Cockneys that know -- I had three actually; I nicked an extra pie. I was brought up on it in the East End, it was fantastic.

"He had them delivered but I think some of the foreign lads were not too sure what to make of it -- so we had their portions!"

In light of his tax-evasion charges, Harry Redknapp probably shouldn't go around announcing that he's stealing pies. That aside, between this, the brilliance he shared with Spurs on the training ground and the family he rescued from their broken-down car, Beckham has done quite a few good deeds during his stint back in London.

Meanwhile, in the U.S. he can't even singlehandedly make his sport the national pastime. What a jerk.
